Sidonius Apollinaris and the Fall of Rome, AD 407-485
Harries, Jill (Lecturer in Ancient History, Lecturer in Ancient History, University of St Andrews)
Sidonius Apollinaris (c.430-c.485) was a high-profile senator and champion of Latin letters, as well as a Christian bishop in Roman Gaul. His career and struggles to maintain conflicting loyalties provide a classic and fascinating illustration of the tottering state of the Roman Empire in the fifth century AD and why its decline and fall was by that time imminent.
